Jeremy Hill probably a Fantasy reserve to open his career
Bengals rookie Jeremy Hill impressed in the preseason and should be in line for a decent workload as the team gets set to open the season in Week 1 against the Ravens.
Head coach Marvin Lewis noted recently that Hill is likely to see a smaller workload than starter Giovani Bernard, but he is not likely to get buried. The team found success while using two backs a year ago, when Bernard split time with BenJarvus Green-Ellis. In two games against the Ravens a year ago, the secondary running back still received 20 touches between the two games, so Hill could reach double digits by the end of Sunday's game.
Hill has a chance to force his way into a more significant role down the road, but Fantasy owners probably want to take a wait-and-see approach while we see exactly how his role shakes out. Outside of deeper leagues as a flex option, he has little appeal for Week 1.
